We want to eall especial attention to our union township ticket- It is worthy of your attention and support by its general excellence in the character of the men composing it and their generally admitted competency for the dutie of the offices for which thy have been selected as candidates. There-is Ad Mark ley for trustee, whom every body likes, has shown himself thoroughly competent to manage and make a success of his own business, which is the best possible evidence that public business entrusted to his care will also be well managed.

John II. Wayne, our candidate for treasurer, is one of our oldest settlers, whose ''word is as good as his bond," who knows the township practically since its organization and hence will be a very valuable man on the board to assist in managing the township's tos wgpiriigjgj 10 13 sg 18 1 SO 23 34 5 36 37 3 31 mm wow ft- They have to be evened up some way or other, and the good are always-made to foot the bills of the bad.

Smith, of Blue Mound, saved all of his print ing outfit from the fire excepting his Washington hand press. He ia to be congratulated on his good, fortune in getting out with so small a loss. The Interstate Telephone Oo. moved its public phone from the Racket store to Isaac Kincaid's store on Monday.

Miss Bertha Mumford, who has had charge of it since its location here, does uot go with it, but retains her clerkship in the Racket. The private instruments are promised to be put in soon. Quite a number of persons from Mound City attended the meeting ad dressed by Rev. Vernon J. Rose, at Pleasanton, Saturday night.

Thev all say his address was the most convincing they have heard during the campaign. He will probably fill a dale at Mound City before election. He treats the Philippine question from a moral and humane standpoint which is very effective, as also punctures the "prosperity" balloon in showing by the reports of Labor Commissioners Bird and Johnson, of this state, Oiat while wages are practically no higher now than in 1806, the increase in cost of living since that time consumes practically all of the wares of laborers in 21 skilled tr-ades, while heretofore they have been able to save a nice little sum each year for a "rainy Mr. "Ed Wilson, of Denver, Colo, had a gasoline lamp on exhibition on the street Mouday evening which seems to be superior to anyone of the kind now in use. It is as easily light ed with a match as any ordinary lamp and gives a beautiful white light equal, if not superior to an electric light and is said to burn fifteen with but one quart of gasoline.

In his talk he gave some interesting information in regard to the handling of gasoline and showed by lighting the gasoline in the tank with a match and afterward blowing it out, that gasoline is not nearly so dangerous a fiuid as usually supposed, and thai no more danger attends the use of gasoline than kerosene unless it is allowed to evaporate in a close room or a tank and the gas lighted, when an explosion may be expected. He asserts that a torch could be placed in an open barrel of gasoline without danger, as it will only burn on the surface without exploding. The test he made on the street made some ot the crowd a little nervous and inclined to "fly," but knowing that he would be the fii3t to blow up in case of accident, they merely shrank away a short distance and awaited developments which did not come. Mr. Wilson is a son-in-law of Mrs.

Margaret Cox, south of this city, haying married Miss Annie Cox, her daugh ter. He wife are on their way to Harrisburg, where his parents live. For a tender, juicy, clean steak or roast, go to the Corner Grocery" meat shop of Sanders Bros. Returned From Hunting Trip. John C.

Cannon and Alf Wayne, of this city, and J. T. Foster, of Blue Mound, returned Sunday night from a two week's hunting trip in the Choctaw Nation. Mr. Cannon reports to us that they had an elegant outing, but saw no bear nor deer, although turkeys were unusually plentiful.

They got all they -wanted and could have shot many more, but like conscientious hunters, refrained from killing more than they needed to supply the camp. They went by train to Graunis, Arkansas, where they hired a professional hun'er, with team and wagon to take them out to the hunting grouuds in the Choctaw Nation, where their nearest neighbors were respectively four, twelvfe, twenty and forty miles away from their camp. Mr. Cannon says the deer in that country are reported to be dying from black tongue and are likely to be scarce for several vears. Republican Township Ticket.

John Atwood and David Over-myer have written ihat they would be glad to address the citizens of Mound City and vicinity at some time before election.

Dales will be fixed for them, one -of which will be for Mr. Over myer or about October 24. They are among the ablest speakers in the west and certain to instruct as well as entertain their hearers. The announcement of their exact dates will be made later through the papers and by bills. B.

Bob Mantey, G. F. Shackelford and Orie Oakley had just returned from Pleasanton Sunday night and started to blanket the eam when one horse became frightened at the blanket and started to run, kicking Orie in the stomach as it turned. Orie grabbed the rein but the kick served to loosen his hold and the team went tearing up the road south of town.

Bob and Shackelford followed tlieia and found them lying down in a ditch about a half mile south of town. No damage was done the team or rig. The kick Orie received was not. serious and he was able to.be about next woi King off the ones that will not sell to the city trade. By comparison vou will readily see that the salary of a high priced salesman, his railroad fare and various other expenses and also the per cent on each eloatc which the merchant receives for giving them room in his store are all extra expenses which have to be paid out of the profit made on the cloaxs thev sell.
